According to CMT, the new space will be "more than 7,500 square feet [,] encompass parts of two floors and feature three classrooms and a state-of-the-art children's exhibit gallery."

Set to open early in 2014, the centre will be called the Taylor Swift Education Center since the 22-year-old's generous donation is "the largest capital contribution by an individual artist in the museum's 45-year history."

In honour of the six-time Grammy Award winner's gracious pledge, Museum Director Kyle Young said in a press release, "Taylor Swift represents country music's best traditions [and] is an artist who has always been ahead of the curve." Adding, "By stepping forward to fund our education center, she has once again demonstrated that she has an eye on our industry's future. We are deeply indebted to Taylor for this wonderful gift, which will help us continue to fulfill our educational mission and serve our worldwide audience."
